The primary difference between an email address that is a regular email address and an email address that is temporary emails is the fact that you are not simply clearing out an email; you're tossing away an entire message.

This sounds amazing! But how do you make it work?

Temporary email addresses feature exactly the same flow that any normal email addresses have, with a few key distinctions. To make sense of these major differences, let's take a look at the fundamentals of regular as well as temporary email.

Standard, permanent email:

• Find an email service like google, outlook, gmail and more.
• Register for an account by making sure you have filled in all of your personal information
• Find a username that hasn't been taken, something like CoolMike23953@gmail.com
• Make use of this email address anywhere

A temporary email address:

• Find a service that provides disposable email address (hint we have it)
• The service creates a (usually) unrelated email address for you to use
• You can copy the address to apply it to whenever you'd typically use an email address.
• Go back to your service, and sit for your incoming email just like you'd go to the service and look for an email
• Take care of business and walk away, never looking back
